personal cloud storage
A form of cloud storage that applies to storing an individual's data in the cloud and providing the individual with access to the data from anywhere. Personal cloud storage also often enables syncing and sharing stored data across multiple devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers. Personal cloud storage is also frequently referred to as mobile cloud storage or pocket cloud storage.
Apple's iCloud, Google Drive, Windows SkyDrive and Amazon's Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) are currently the most popular examples of personal cloud storage. Hard drive manufacturers are increasingly providing personal cloud storage services as well via offerings like the Western Digital MyBook Live and Seagate GoFlex lines of hard drives.

I'm planning to install Hackintosh, and would like to run it both from the BIOS and from a Virtual Machine on my other OS.
My other OS is Linux (up-to-date Arch Linux, with Linux 3.8.4), my hard disk is already partitioned with GPT (it's an SSD disk, there's already space for a 128GB partition), and I can use any Virtual Machine software to run Hackintosh (VirtualBox, VMWare, QEMU, ...).
I'm wondering if it's possible, and how should I:
- Install Hackintosh on a partition of my harddisk (so that I can boot it from BIOS) from my current OS
- Run the installed Hackintosh from a virtualization software

It may be old news, but the end of the payroll tax holiday is an ongoing reality that affects everyone's paycheck. For an individual earning $50,000 a year, the two percent increase amounts to an extra $1,000 in taxes annually, the equivalent of $83.33 a month or $2.74 a day. For many taxpayers, that's enough to affect daily life. If you've had a little trouble adjusting to the 2013 tax increase, perhaps we can help you out.
These helpful tips can lower your tax woes.

This time of year might be known for giving up bad habits thanks to Lent, but we're advocating for picking up good habits instead. When it comes to spending, we could all use some tips to better our practices. Here are some that we hope will last well beyond 40 days.
- Buy for quality, not cost: If you're someone who frequently shops lesser-quality items because of the cheaper price tag, then consider how much you're actually saving in the long run. An expensive pair of boots might last you a lifetime, whereas you might have to keep replacing the more affordable pair that is poorly made.
- Keep detailed track of your expenses: For some people, checking bank statements from time to time is how they track finances. But keeping tabs on where money goes - how much do you really spend on eating out per week? - is key to understanding the bigger picture of how to save up.

Old Lesson: Pay Off Your Mortgage ASAP
Photo: Thinkstock
Here's what I've been taught about money: It's not good to be in debt, and therefore it is good to pay off debts as quickly as possible, including a mortgage. Turns out, this conventional wisdom is a holdover from a different time. Carmen Wong Ulrich, the president and co-founder of ALTA Wealth Management, told me: "People think that it's a good idea to pre-pay a mortgage and/or pay a mortgage off ASAP." What's wrong with that? "This advice comes from a previous couple of generations who had horrible interest rates on their mortgages--in the 1980s, the average mortgage interest rate was in the teens. Imagine--my dad, who had great credit, was paying 17% on his mortgage. That's expensive. Today, mortgage rates are at incredible lows--you should be in no rush."

Planning and timing is everything, especially for frugal consumers who need to make a big purchase. Knowing the best time to buy something -- from cars and houses to televisions and appliances -- goes a long way toward saving big bucks.
Related: What are the top inexpensive digital cameras?
The best time to buy a big-ticket item is usually when a newer model is introduced. For example, new furniture styles are released twice a year, so the best time to buy furniture is the month before the new products hit the stores. Season's end is also an excellent buying time. Consider lawn mowers, which are best bought in August and September when winter is on its way and the grass won't need mowing until spring.
Note, though, that following the best-time-to-buy rules to get the best bargains means you must be prepared to sacrifice. In other words, forget about having the latest and greatest new model. Older models -- typically equal in quality to the replacements...Read More »

According to The Guardian, in October 2012, Donaldson (not her real name) experienced a sickening, gut-wrenching moment when she discovered that over the course of two years, each time she had transferred her monthly paycheck of $1,500 from her HSBC account to the joint one she shares with her husband at Nationwide building society, she had accidentally been placing the money in a total stranger's account. After two years, the amount she had transferred was roughly $40,000.

CNET Editors' review
DivX isn't just a powerful video converter, but a stylish universal video player as well. It can convert and play just about any video file you want and gives you plenty of advanced control over your product. Though some of its features are locked behind a paywall, it is worthy enough to be your sole conversion program.
In addition to a custom browser toolbar, this program's installation has a search page and home page takeover attached to the download. It tries to force you to accept one or the other, which is annoying. The program includes a video player in addition to a converter, but the two programs install separately from one another - you can't convert a video and then play it without launching the second program. DivX's player supports most formats and the converter lets you convert to just about any format you can imagine. However, the MPEG codec and a few others are only available as free trials that you have to pay to use after a certain amount of time. Some of the app's HD resolutions are only available if you upgrade to Premium, as well. Video converting isn't lightning fast, but it's not slow by any means. It took the program about two minutes to convert a five-minute video file. Video quality stayed intact.
While DivX won't blow you away with performance, the features and options the program offers merit plenty of acclaim. It deserves points just for being a video player and converter in one. Since DivX backs those options up with even more customization ideas inside the program, it's one of the better converters you'll find.Divx Plus Software - Play and create Divx media files - Download Video Previews:
Publisher's Description

DivX Player is a video player that provides phenomenal playback performance for the most popular video files on the Internet, including new DivX HEVC video up to 1080p. Transfer videos to a DivX Certified TV, tablet or mobile phone, and stream your video collection to any DLNA-compatible device with the DivX Player.

"Divix Player"
Version: DivX 10.1.1
Sound and video was very good
On the earlier version, prier to this 10.1.1v, it was very slow to on come up on the screen, a little faster on this version
The best free media player's is Jet Audio's video and audio player. The pay program is cheaper than Real player and has a much better audio with more options.
"Good program, but VIRUSES LIKE NO OTHER"
Version: DivX 10.1.1
The program itself is decent.
VIRUSES, VIRUSES, and MORE VIRUSES
Can't opt out and bundled in every update. Will hijack every browser there is, install spyware, and create 10 different network backdoors that could connect your computer to a botnet. Seriously bad. This download NEEDS to be removed from this site.
Good program, loaded with more spyware than any other major program I have literally ever seen. Free Smily .exe tier. Some of the malware that it installs could potentially hijack your computer and get you sent to jail. IT IS THAT BAD!!!!!!!!!!

Understanding GPS and Geocache Co-ordinates
If you want to know how to geocache properly then it's important to have a good understanding of how GPS co-ordinates work. This is especially useful when you are trying to solve puzzle caches.
Before we get going check out the photo on the right. I was geocaching near the Dead Sea in Jordan in November 2010. I thought it would be interesting to see what the GPS altitude would be the lowest point on earth. Look at the altitude... or whatever you call negative altitude.
BTW the geoaching app shown here is called Blackstar and works on Blackberries. Unfortunately my BB died after it got wet after I got back. Blackstar in conjunction with the GPS on the BB is such a good app that I hardly used Garmin.
Now that I have an Android, I'm back to the Garmin because the geocaching apps with the Samsung Galaxy GPS just don't work well enough for me. See my review on the Geoaching Android app here.
But I digress...
Understanding GPS Co-ordinates
To understand how to geocache you'll need to become familiar with how co-ordinates work.
Lines of latitude
We start by cutting the world in half horizontally - this line is called the equator.
Horizontal lines that circle the earth are called lines of latitude. Imagine that a line is drawn from the centre of the earth at angle to the horizontal. This angle gives us degrees latitude above or below the equator. So in the picture you can see N30, N50 N70 which are north of the equator, and S10, S30 which are south of the equator.
So if your latitude co-ordinate has an "N" in front of it, then you are north of the equator, and if it has an "S" in front of it you are south of the equator. Going back to the Dead Sea, you can can see that we are located at 31 degrees to the north of the equator. And at the north pole, we would be 90 degrees above the equator.
If, as you move, your latitude numbers increase, in the northern hemisphere you would be heading further north, and in the southern hemisphere you would be heading further south.
Lines of longitude
The line that cuts the world in half vertically through Greenwich in London is called the prime meridian - as you can see in the picture. Vertical lines that circle the earth are called lines of longitude.
Anything west of the prime meridian will have a "W" in the longitude, and anything to the east will have an "E" in the co-ordinate. Going back to the Dead Sea, you can can see that we are located at 35 degrees to the east of the prime meridian. If, as you move, your longitude numbers are increasing, and you have an "E" in front of your co-ordinate you would be heading further east, and if you have a "W" in the longitude, you would be heading further west.
This is useful to know when you are solving puzzle caches. For example if you are plotting numbers in Google Earth and see that the calculation takes you to the wrong location, do a whatif and see what happens if you increase either the latitude or longitude. Increasing/decreasing the latitude number by itself, will move your point due north/south. Alternatively, increasing/decreasing the longitude will move your point due east/west.
Degrees, minutes, seconds
Consider the co-ordinates shown on the Blackberry at the Dead Sea.
Since the world is circular (yes, I know it's almost a sphere, but work with me here!) it can be divided into 360 degrees. However because, as we discussed above, cartographers divided the earth in to north/south, latitudes only go from from 0 to 90 degrees in the North or South. Longitudes go from 0 to 180 East or West.
How far is one degree of Latitude?
You'll notice that latitudes are parallel lines wherever you are on earth. It means since the earth is almost a sphere, for geocaching purposes one degree of latitude is the same anywhere on earth. (OK the earth is slightly flat at the poles so latitude does vary but it's only a difference of about 1km between latitudes at the equator and the poles.)
A minute of latitude is 1/60th of a degree, and one second is 1/60th of a minute.
Geocaching uses Degrees, Minutes and Decimal minutes. You'll sometimes see it referred to as dd mm.mmm, for example in the setup menu of your GPS. Some puzzle caches will use Decimal Degrees to be tricky and these are expressed as dd.mmmm.
So how far is one degree, minute and second?
- 1° of Latitude (1/360th of the Earth's Polar circumference) is 110.5743 km (68.70768 miles)
- 1' (1 minute) of Latitude (1/60th of 1°) is 1.8429 km (1.1451 miles)
- 1" (1 second) of Latitude (1/3600th of 1°) is only 30.7151 m (100.771 feet)
- 0.1" (1/10th second) of Latitude (1/36000th of 1°) is only 3.07151 m (10.0771 feet)
So for co-ordinates in the Degree/Decimal Minute format (dd mm.mmm)...
- If the co-ordinates change by 1 degree you would have moved 110.6 kilometres
- If the co-ordinates change by 1 minute you would have moved 1844 metres
- If the co-ordinates change by 0.1 minutes you would have moved 184 metres
- If the co-ordinates change by .01 minutes you would have moved 18.4 metres
- If the co-ordinates change by .001 minutes you would have moved 1.84 metres.
So that third decimal place in the co-ordinates doesn't make a lot of difference - very useful information when you're trying to solve a puzzle cache. It's within the accuracy of your GPS. So you don't need to solve that number to get within a search radius. Even the second decimal place isn't that far away. It will get you somewhere pretty close. This is one of the secrets of finding puzzle caches.
In the puzzle you know the degrees are going to be the same as where you are (unless you're near a degree confluence). All you need to work out are the minutes and the first decimal point and you can see that you will be very close. Just plot some numbers on Google Earth until you find somewhere that looks likely.
How far is one degree of Longitude?
Because lines of longitude converge as you get closer to the poles, the distance between longitudes decreases as you move away from the equator and towards the poles. Therefore the distance depends on the latitude at which you are located.
For example at the equator, the distance between degree longitudes (say, between 150 and 151 degrees) is about 111.3 km. However at 35 degrees latitude that distance is only 91.2 km. Of course by the time you reach the pole it's zero.
Rather than digging out your old school scientific calculator, try this distance calculator here. It accepts various formats, so just use the usual geocaching dd mm.mmm.
Below is a table of distances between degree and minute longitudes that are calculated for latitudes from 0 to 90 degrees.
For example, if you are at 35 degrees latitude, then the distance between one degree longitudes is 91.2 km. The difference between one minute of longitude is 1.52 km. The distances are also shown in statute miles.
So you can now calculate distances for decimal minutes in the same way as for latitudes above i.e. At 35 degree latitude 0.1 minutes is 152 metres, 0.01 minutes is 15 metres and 0.001 minutes is 1.5 metres.[table "2" not found /]
Converting from Decimal Degrees to Decimal Minutes
Sometimes, people use Decimal Degrees in their cache puzzles i.e. dd.mmmm You need to convert these co-ordinates into Decimal Minutes which is what is used for most geocaches. Conversely you may want to convert from Decimal Minutes to Decimal Degrees.
It's actually very simple.
Since there are 60 minutes in a degree, to convert from Decimal Degrees to Minutes simply take the decimal part of the co-ordinate and multiply by 60. For example say the co-ordinate is S34.12345, multiply 60 x .12345 = 7.407. So your co-ordinate would be S34 07.407.
To convert from Decimal Minutes to Degrees divide the minutes by 60. So using our previous example, divide 7.407/60 = .12345.
It's the same process for either latitude or longitude co-ordinates.
Let me know if there is anything else that you would like to know about co-ordinates.
Review of Groundspeak's Geocaching for Android App
Groundspeak, the organization behind Geocaching.com has released a geocaching app for Android platforms 1.5 and up. It's available for about US$9.35 from the Android market.
In the old days we used to print out cache pages and take them with us. What a hassle! With the technologies available today you need to become familiar with how to geocache in a paperless manner.
This Groundspeak app promises to be the ultimate in paperless geocaching because everything you need to find, navigate to and log caches is all in one unit.
The question is, does it live up to the promise? Is it time to retire your Garmin or Magellan and go paperless with your Android? I installed the app on my Samsung Galaxy and used it to find out.
Here is a summary of my experiences...
- As you'd expect it's tightly linked to the geocaching.com database.
- You can search for caches in a similar manner to the way you do searches on geocaching.com
- An Advanced Search facility has a range of useful filters e.g. terrain, difficulty, size, type.
- Caches can be displayed on Google maps and selected from the map;
- It will allow you to navigate to the cache in three ways - compass, map or turn-by-turn instructions using the Android Google map system.
- Active Pocket Queries are automatically downloaded (for Premium Members)
- Logs can be entered on your Android device, although it can be very time consuming.
- If you are out of communication range you can save logs for later upload.
- All recent logs can be displayed online.
- Battery life!! With both the GPS and screen running, this thing drains your battery like emptying a bath. Don't expect to do more than a couple of hours of caching with it. It certainly won't go all day like a Garmin.
- The compass feature is slow... on the Samsung Galaxy at least. The Samsung does not have an electronic compass, so the app relies on updates from the GPS. Therefore it only updates the display if you are moving, making it quite useless when you are approaching GZ. Some smartphones have an electronic compass so they may work better.
- Low sensitivity. I think one of the most important features of a GPS for geocaching is sensitivity, because we often work under tree canopies or in among buildings. The GPS used in the Samsung does not work well in these situations and I often found myself wandering in circles within a 20 - 30 metre radius, exacerbated even more by the slow updates of the compass display. Although this is not the fault of the app, it is a problem with the system. I used the Samsung side by side with the Garmin. In open the two pretty much agreed with each other - although the Samsung did not update as quickly. As soon as I got under light tree cover the Samsung lost the plot and started giving readings that were up to 30m off. The Garmin kept on giving accurate readings.
- Adding waypoints not obvious. It took me a while to figure out how to enter new Waypoints because it is not obvious. You may want to add new waypoints for example if you are doing multis or simply want to add a new co-ordinate. To add a waypoint, you need to bury down through the menus to Map Mode then select Add New Waypoint from the menu. You can then click on the waypoint and navigate to it. However this should be on the main menu, not buried down about 3 levels, because it is a fundamental thing that you do when you go geocaching.
- Not rugged. Unless you get one of those Motorola Defy's, Android devices are not built for outdoor activities where you might be in the rain, or wading rivers, or out on boats. One "oops" moment and it's all over. Although this is not a fault of the app, it is a problem if you are geocaching on a smarphone.
Many of the above comments relate to the app being used with the Samsung Galaxy. You may have a different result if you use it on another type of smartphone.
I'd call this a "pinch hitter" geocaching solution i.e. it's OK if you don't have another option. For example if you can't afford a real GPS, or have left your proper GPS at home, then this is "OK". If you'd like to know how to geocache paperlessly then take your real GPS to find the geocache, and use the Smartphone for descriptions, hints etc.
The app is pretty good but is hamstrung by the hardware limitations of the Samsung Galaxy. I also have c:geo installed on my phone. It also suffers from the same limitations. I may do a comparison review sometime.
In my opinion, the best smartphone geoaching app is Blackstar - but you have to own a Blackberry to use that.
So what is the Groundspeak Geocaching app good for? It's a good complement to a real GPS device like a Garmin or Magellan. Use your real GPS to do the grunt work with high sensitivity, accuracy, speed and ruggedness. The Android allows you to read the cache descriptions, recent logs and submit log entries.
In terms of doing paperless caching in a single unit, yes, sort of...but not quite.
I still use it if I have to but don't like it as much as my Garmin.

It was our cover story in our special high school football preview section back in August.
Allen and Dieruff's football-only move to the Mountain Valley Conference was one of the more intriguing story lines entering the 2012 season.
What impact would the move have on these two long-scuffling programs?
Now with the two teams set to play each other Saturday afternoon at J. Birney Crum Stadium and the new portion of the Canaries and Huskies schedule behind them, the question is — was the move out of the Lehigh Valley Conference to the MVC worth it?
The local sports community would probably offer a "yes-and-no" answer; yes for Allen, which was able to beat someone other than Dieruff for the first time since 2005, but no for Dieruff, which continued to struggle and lose by lopsided scores every week.
However, even the Huskies could see the positives in the move.
"I thought it went well," said Dieruff first-year coach Kyle Beller. "Obviously, we didn't get the results we wanted yet, but I don't gauge the whole season on wins and losses. We wanted to get at least two or three wins, and that didn't happen. But we played a lot of young kids and we've been laying the foundation for the future."
Had Dieruff stayed in the LVC, the Huskies would undoubtedly still be winless and the games would have been even more lopsided.
Beller and everybody associated with the program understood from the beginning that the change of leagues wouldn't be a cure-all and that a complete restructuring of the program needed to take place and that overhaul wasn't going to happen overnight.
At a minimum, the Huskies were able to score some points, registering 116 in the eight games they have played.
In both 2011 and 2009, Dieruff only scored 48 points in its nine non-Allen games. In 2010, that total was just 36 points.
Despite playing one more game than Dieruff has, Allen hasn't scored as many points as the Huskies.
Yet, the Canaries were able to post the two wins desperately needed to validate the progress the program feels it has made.
And in addition to those victories over Lehighton and Pocono Mountain East, Allen was able to compete with Pocono Mountain West.
Had Allen's best player, Zak Dakes, been healthy all season, the Canaries might have been able to hang closer in several other games.
"The biggest thing for me was that there was no past history with the teams we were playing and we got a fresh start," Allen coach George Clay said. "We were competitive in more games and we didn't go into any games this year with our heads down because we were playing teams that beat us by 60 the previous year."
However, as Clay and his players found out, the Mountain Valley Conference still offered several quality teams; teams that could have won games in the Lehigh Valley Conference.
In fact two of them did beat LVC members in Week 1 — East Stroudsburg South knocking off Freedom, Pocono Mountain West stunning Bethlehem Catholic.
"There were some real good teams in this league this year, and they beat up on us," Clay said. "But at least I think we went into every game with the right attitude and thought process. We went into every game thinking that anything was possible. When we saw that Lehighton beat East Stroudsburg South after we beat Lehighton, we realized that 'Hey, we do have a shot here.' "
In between the wins over Lehighton and Pocono East was a 42-0 loss to Pleasant Valley — one of three MVC teams going on to the district playoffs — and Clay was pleased to see that his kids were able to rebound.

sorry if this is a double post, but i have searched the forum, and did not find an answer for my problems installing Snow Leopard on Vmware Workstation 7, Windows Xp, Intel.
I downloaded the darwin snow vmware "installer" package.
Got a snow leopard retail dvd.
Started up the darwin, booted from osx dvd, the installation was started.
When installation was finished, i start with darwin and choose to boot from HD.
Darwin loading...
Gray screen with apple logo and rotating "ajax" logo.
Nothing happens.
Have been waiting 30 minutes, and no process.
What to do ?
Is there a noob vmware snow leopard image somewhere I can download ?
Or do I just need to learn this bottom up ?
I also have a laptop Thinkpad T43P, would it be easier for me, to install snow leopard on that, instead of the vmware ?
I plan to develope a iphone app, but would like to try the iphone sdk, before I buy a mac, just to develop and app for app store.
Thanks in advantage.
I forgot to mention:
I have tried to install about 7 different distros.
Have tried Vmware Workstation 6.5, 7 and VirtualBox.
I have had a version of leopard running, but it was out dated to use the iphone sdk, and after update, it failed to boot. (
Have just tried pcwiz vmware leopard 10.5.2, and it's working so fare.
Try to enable network and update. (will be back)

Reprinted with permission from Schizophrenia Digest, Summer 2006
Ronnie Buchanan breaks down when he remembers almost losing his identical twin, Donnie, on a late fall afternoon 20 years ago.
"We feel each other's pain," he says, rubbing his eyes. "I cry when I think Donnie is suffering."
The brothers have come to a
The receptionist smiles and greets them as they pass by her desk. Grabbing cups of coffee, they settle in at a table in the lunch room. The Buchanans talk in stream-of consciousness style, with one brother starting an anecdote and the other finishing.
Ronnie lowers his head and weeps when Donnie talks about that day. His brother's story is too much for him to think about, and he pauses to collect himself.
"We know if the other is having problems," Donnie says. "When he is sick, I feel it. And vice versa."
He leans over the table and grabs Ronnie's hand. "It's all right," he says. "I'm all right."
Donnie was 26, he says, when he heard voices telling him to kill himself.
"Voices told me I had to die and go to Hell to pay for my sins," Donnie says. "My delusions were overwhelming."
He thinks it is important to talk about his survival and long, slow journey back to a stable life.
"Now I do everything I can to keep sane and healthy," says Donnie.
Today, both Buchanans continue to fight for their own well-being and for the health of others with mental illness.
Donnie was 24 when he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Ronnie was 20. Both brothers have been in and out of psychiatric hospitals dozens of times, and in jail a few times for actions related to their mental illness.
Neither has been hospitalized or in trouble with the law for more than six years. They share an apartment, work part-time jobs, and handle their own finances. Their church and family are supportive, but mostly they depend on each other to stay well.
"It isn't easy, but we try to stay positive and have a sense of humor," Ronnie says. "I like to wear a button that says, 'Why Be Normal?'"
Donnie adds, "Mental illness is a part of my life. Every person has ups and downs. I am content with my life."
The Buchanans visit one of two Cobb-Douglas Community Services Board outpatient centers several times a month for medication management and to talk (sometimes separately, sometimes together) with a psychiatrist. They also do part-time maintenance work at some of the public agency's 35 sites. The Community Services Board helps more than 14,000 people who have developmental disabilities, mental illness, and substance abuse issues.
The twins say the nightmares they have been through help them keep appointments at the center and stay on their medication. They also have become passionate advocates for people with mental illness.
"Too many people with mental illness can't talk about it," Donnie says. "But we can speak out for them."
For seven years, the twins have spoken at a variety of forums - from meetings with legislators at the Georgia Capitol to a citizens' leadership seminar on health and human resources.
"I write letters to politicians to make them more aware about what it is like to be mentally ill," Ronnie says. "More needs to be done to make it easier for people to get help."
The brothers also give police officers advice on handling calls involving the mentally ill. Tod Citron, director of the Cobb-Douglas Community Services Board, has taken the twins to law enforcement crisis intervention training in
"When police get calls involving people with a mental illness, things too often go bad," Citron says. "Having the Buchanans talk about their experiences can help officers better handle these situations."
Donnie Buchanan remembers landing in jail twice in the same week. It was about 20 years ago and he was delusional. He heard voices telling him to walk to an
He walked in the dark, barefoot, for miles across busy
The day after his release, Donnie says, the voices came back, telling him that the pretty blonde playmate was waiting for him. He made the long trek back to the hotel, where he was arrested again. He was locked up for three weeks without medication, he says.
"I should have been taken to a hospital, not jail," he says. "I want police to understand how to help us."
Donnie describes his years in and out of state institutions as "the hound dog shuffle." He compares heavy doses of medication to going in and out of Hell. Life is better now, he says, and he wants it to stay that way.
Donnie and Ronnie believe that talking about what they have been through will help others who are sick and also enlighten people on the other side of the fence.
The twins' first speech was at a National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) meeting in
"It felt good to tell people who we were," he says. "Hundreds of people are mentally ill and don't know it. We do, and can talk about it."
Ronnie adds, "We have to stand up for others. If what we do helps people understand, then our work is not in vain, nor is our suffering."
Community Services Board director Citron often accompanies the brothers on speaking engagements. He has known the Buchanans for 10 years and says they have come a long way in their recovery; they are high functioning and understand that they have a mental illness.
"They are fabulous spokespersons for the mentally ill," says Citron. "They have a fighting spirit and want to be a part of advocacy."
When Ronnie and Donnie come to the
"I am not this big-time director to them; I am their friend," he says. "They say I have helped them. But they have made me a better person, as well."
While the brothers describe their adult years as difficult, they remember a happy childhood in
Their father was a plumber, and their mother worked as a cook and homemaker. The twins have a brother who is three years younger and a sister a year older. Donnie says their mother was diagnosed with bipolar after he became sick. He says two relatives also have schizophrenia. His younger brother has epilepsy.
Psychiatrist Bob Climko, MD, director of medical affairs for the Cobb-Douglas Community Services Board, says there is a genetic component to schizophrenia: While it affects 1 percent of the general population, in identical twins the odds increase to nearly 50 percent when one twin has the illness. Climko says that identical twins often respond well to the same drug treatment for schizophrenia.
That isn't the case with the Buchanans. Medication that works for Ronnie does not help Donnie, who also has bipolar, according to Climko. Donnie says his symptoms are worse than his brother's because he has auditory hallucinations and delusions, and also has a compulsive disorder.
"They both need to be on medication, and they know that," Citron says. "There is no battle there. They work hard on their recovery."
Climko says that scientists' understanding of the causes of schizophrenia and treatment options have improved dramatically in the past decade. That has helped the Buchanans to have fewer problems in recent years.
"Ronnie and Donnie are delightful in their frankness in talking about their illness," Climko says. "There was a time that we never talked about cancer; now we do. There is so much we can learn by talking."
Although it's hard to tell them apart, Citron says the twins' personalities are different.
He describes Ronnie, a writer and poet, as more abrasive and stressed. At night, Ronnie stays busy writing letters to political leaders and the media about mental illness because writing keeps him from being depressed.
Citron also sees Ronnie as more ambitious. He completed a 12-week community course to start his own lawn-care business. The center helped him print up fliers—and even became a landscaping customer.
Donnie is more laid back, according to Citron. He is kind and affectionate and easy to be around, but Citron says he hears more of the blues in Donnie's voice.
"There is a dichotomy between the two," Citron says. "They are both different, but they depend on each other to get along in life."
The brothers have lived together most of their adult lives. Donnie graduated from high school, but Ronnie quit at 16 to work with his dad. While he was a teen, Ronnie also worked at a fast-food restaurant and did maintenance work at a church at night. He earned enough to buy a car.
Everything seemed to go well until he was 20, Ronnie says. Then his world crashed around him.
"I felt this huge power surge of depression. I didn't think I could talk to anyone. I was scared of losing my car and my jobs."
His depression worsened. He realized he needed help, so he talked to his mother. She took him to a hospital, where he stayed for more than a month. He lost his jobs and car.
"I didn't get help until it was too late," he says. "Next thing I know, I am strapped down and pumped up with six kinds of medicine."
While Ronnie was learning to live with his illness, his brother worked in
Ronnie, who was doing better at the time, flew to take him home. Donnie became delusional on the return flight and his brother had to take him off the plane. He drove him back to
"I cried when Donnie got sick. It broke my heart," says Ronnie. "I knew what he was going through and didn't want that for him."
Today, the brothers are healthy and moving forward with their lives. Now 46, they have been on the road to recovery for more than 25 years.
Citron says they are doing fine, staying healthy, and engaged in the community.
"Ronnie and Donnie are fascinating, colorful, and creative personalities, and people receive them well," he says. "They help de-stigmatize what people think of the mentally ill."

A bad week for women
What a dispiriting week for women. Following Maria Miller's resignation, just three out of 22 Cabinet ministers are females – putting the UK government at a 15-year low and near rock bottom in comparison with other European governments.

In an effort to improve navigation, improve ease of use and make statistics more discoverable, the U.S. Census Bureau today launched new features on the census.gov home page. Users will now see an economic dashboard with key indicators generated by the Census Bureau prominently located on the upper right. Visitors will also find a new interactive map that shows in-depth business and demographic information for the nation, states and counties. There will also be a "Stat of the Day" highlighting Census Bureau statistics. Navigation has also been improved by grouping links into themes. Those familiar with the features and links such as QuickFacts and the 2010 Population Finder will still find them on the new home page along with a feedback button to provide comments on their overall experience with the new design.
This is the first step in a series of improvements to the census.gov website that will be made over the coming year. More details will be made available at a later date.

As we mentioned in Friday's blog post, The Salvation Army was chosen to announce the Dallas Cowboys' fourth round draft picks yesterday at Radio City Music Hall in New York City for the upcoming NFL season!
Representing The Salvation Army, Major George Hood, Chief Communications Officer, announced the Dallas Cowboys' fourth round picks: Kyle Wilber, a defensive end from Wake Forest and Matt Johnson, a safety from Eastern Washington.
We're looking forward to seeing these players on the field this fall when The Salvation Army returns to Cowboys stadium on Thanksgiving Day for our Red Kettle Kickoff halftime show (and sure to be amazing game between long-time rivals the Cowboys and Washington Redskins)!
The Dallas Cowboys and the Jones family have been amazing supporters of The Salvation Army throughout the years. We were honored and thrilled to be a part of the event. Thank you, Dallas Cowboys, for allowing us to be a part of this amazing event!
And, as promised, we have pictures from yesterday. Check 'em out:
